Manchester’s sweetest cupcakery, Hey Little Cupcake!, is bringing a taste of East Coast to the North West with the introduction of its latest Stateside collection.

The collection features seven exciting new cupcakes*, with each flavour taking you on a journey along America’s East Coast, from a Florida Key Lime Pie, to a Boston Cream Pie, New York Cheesecake and Kentucky Jam Cake.

Pack your dessert fork and napkin as their East Coast journey begins on Monday 3rd September with one flavour available per day. Then the whole collection is here to tempt your taste buds in a 2 days special event on Friday 7th and Saturday 8th September.

Sarah Wilson, owner of Hey Little Cupcake! explained the inspiration behind the new collection; “Our collections are all about taking different tastes from around the world and baking those flavours in to a cupcake form. There is so much history and variety along the East Coast of America and we did a great deal of research before selecting the cakes to add to this collection. From our sneak previews, the New York Cheesecake is proving to be a massive success and we’re confident there is a flavour in there to suit everyone! We’re looking forward to seeing the response we get from this collection.”

Delivery is available locally on orders over £20 and up to 10 miles from the Hey Little Cupcake! shop in Spinningfields, Manchester and is charged at £1 per mile.
